Crazy Girls

I don't know what has gotten into my girls lately, but when I get up from sitting anywhere they think they have to announce it to the world. I've tried everything to break them of it, squirt of water, turning my back on them, telling them "no!", nothing seems to work. I don't know if they are just telling me to sit back down so they can cuddle at my feet or what! It's funny most of the time but there are times, like when I have a headache, I could do without all the noise. Sadie has this squeaky little bark that just cuts right through your brain and Punkin, well she has a big girl bark so the two of them together can be a bit trying. I do get tickled at Dusty when all of this is going on, he will come running if he isn't right there with me to see what the ruckus is about then the look he get's on his face is priceless. It's like, Jeesh! Girls! Do they have to make so much noise! He's not as vocal as the girls but when he does speak up, you know you've been barked at.

Back to the girls, they are very jealous of each other. They know that as far as a pack goes, that Phil and I are the leaders but Sadie tries to put the bluff on Punkin. I do believe most of the barking contests between them is to see who can get the most attention. If I pick up Sadie to cuddle, Punkin will start barking, if I start to cuddle with Punkin, Sadie tries to break it up. Punkin also doesn't like me to cuddle with Dusty.

It's hard living up to the pack's expectations!
